There was a severe bubble leading up to that, characterized by corruption and negligence. I'm not sure it's a good example.

If something like the Russian revolution comes along then all bets are off, it pretty much doesn't matter what you did with your money as long as you didn't flaunt it.

Are you sure we are not currently in a “severe bubble characterized by corruption and negligence?”

I think I could argue both sides pretty convincingly. It is easy to see in hindsight, not so easy in the thick of it.
